Back then, Bondi ran point on releasing millions of pages from the Epstein investigation, thanks to the Epstein Files Transparency Act pushed through. Congress Epstein survivors Maria and Annie Farmer are fired up, demanding the deposition happen ASAP under oath. Reps from both sides, like Robert Garcia, Nancy Mace, and Rocana, fired off letters pushing Comer to enforce her testimony and keep the pressure on. The feds released about 3 million pages out of over 6 million total, holding back half for privacy or ongoing probes.
